It had been reported here a while ago that HGVC maintenance fees charged to a Hilton AMEX card would not earn the bonus points regular Hilton hotel-related charges would earn. An earlier post said this policy was changed a few years ago. Well I am happy to report that is definitely false!

I just checked my Surpass AMEX statement, and I received a full 6 points/$ bonus for all my Hilton charges, which included:

- one Open Season reservation
- one $49 Club Season reservation charge
- payment for 2012 maintenance fees of my Seaworld week

Add that to the normal 3 points/$ that I get on any purchase, and it equals a full 9 points/$ for all of those HGVC charges. That was a nice boost to my HHonors point balance!

I noticed the same thing on my bill but forgot to report it here. The bonus points started again a while back. Sure helps my Honors account total.
